MyDocs is located under /home/user/MyDocs

just open up your shell and copy the file with :

cp /home/user/MyDocs/YourFile.desktop /usr/share/applications/hildon

and beware, linux is CaseSensitive ;)

osso-xterm only supports one argument.

So your best course of action is:
1. Create /usr/local/bin/ssh-localforward.sh
with contents:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
ssh -L 3389:xxx.xxx.1.xxx:3389 root@mydns -p XXXX
exit 0
2. Make executable:
Code:
chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/ssh-localforward.sh
3. Change:
Code:
Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm ssh -L 3389:xxx.xxx.1.xxx:3389 root@mydns -p XXXX
to:
Code:
Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm /usr/local/bin/ssh-localforward.sh

I am thinking that "Terminal=true" means that this command should be executed within an osso-term session in any case.

Yet instead we must do this:

Code:
Terminal=true
Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm 'ssh hostname'
What does terminal=true mean then?

Ahh does single quoting the argument to osso-xterm allow more than one argument [inside the quote]?

When i launch the icon the terminal says internal fault and closes
I have made a Ssh.sh file in /usr/local/bin and chmod 755, changed the code to:Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm /usr/local/bin/Ssh.sh. Whats wrong? The code within Ssh.desktop look like this:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=0.1
Type=Application
Terminal=true
Name=Ssh
Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm /usr/local/bin/Ssh.sh
Icon=
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

Ok two thing. Try just running the script from an already open Xterm. Just run type in:

Code:
/usr/local/bin/Ssh.sh
If that works then double check your desktop file, keeping in mind Linux is case sensitive. So make sure its /usr/local/bin/Ssh.sh and not /usr/local/bin/ssh.sh

Take screenshots and put here if you are still stuck.

Re: xterminal "top" shortcut
 
OK, I have created a desktop icon that launches an application (actually a Qt application). The problem, is eventhough it launches OK, when I switch to another app, like web browser or such, my Qt app automatically closes - it doesn't show up or remain on the open apps window like Xterm, webbrowser or other apps do. Is there some special priority or something that must be set to keep a user created app alive?

Not the big Unix-freak here, but maybe you want to try to run your command with "nohup" ???

Stumbled across this option while looking for a way to launch an application (mediaplayer in my case) in the background/minimized.
Adding a "&" should normally do that, but it didnīt work...
